Who: You!
Where: Hotel!
When: Day 105!

[ Sure, you may be incapable of lying and also incapable of being emotionally honest and ALSO be completely amnesiac, but fanmail waits! For no one!

As usual, the lobby is flooded, preventing you from leaving or entering the hotel without wading through a bunch of boxes and mountains of cards. But - OWO? WHAT'S THIS?

Your phone buzzes, too! ]

Producers: LOL you guys that was SOOOOOOO BAD

[ Wait. That message is gone. What? ]

Producers: Congratulations, idols! You got to the next goal with your stunning performance! Wow, you're doing so great!
Producers: For 500,000 points, you can get something - or someplace! - nice. Maybe you want a spa? A cute cafe? Whatever it is, it'll be shared by your community, isn't that nice? And you get to choose what it is, too!
Producers: Suggest a location here, and we'll send an official poll sometime soon. You know how it goes!
Producers: Or do you?

[ Hm!

Submit #poll suggestions here! ]

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

[Her experience is ballroom-style dancing which doesn’t really fit the music style, so she’s content to follow along, doing a decent job of keeping her balance but it’s still a moving train and all. But with that comment, she leans in briefly to murmur in Sekhmet’s ear, playful:]

As long as it’s fun, right?

[As flustered as she gets, Sekhmet loves receiving this kind of attention- in a complicated way that bumps up against issues that she barely remembers the nature of- but she loves it nonetheless, that somebody is taking the effort to charm her and make her react. So she laughs a little nervously at the whisper, but smiles. Somehow Kohime's sweetness is all the sweeter for her prickly quirks.]

Yes, it really is fun. All of this without spiked punch, too.

[The ride actually does not take very long, because a certain player read something wrong on the setting page!]

[Hopefully Sekhmet's watching for their stop because Kohime sure ain't. She pulls back with a light laugh -- Sekhmet was right, before, saying it was all a matter of control, but that was before. This time around, for whatever reason, she's just doing it because she enjoys it and it's fun to get cute flustered reactions out of the other girl.]

I don't know what you're talking about.

[She knows exactly what she's talking about, obviously.]

[Sure enough, Sekhmet looks as flustered as ever, but not particular anxious about it.]

Of course not, I just mis-spoke, you wouldn't do anything like-

ah!

[The train suddenly stops! She pulls away to get her phone.]

This is our stop!

––What? Already?!

[Scrambling for her phone, too, then the door!]

[Scurrying out with Kohime, the doors closing shorly after they leave!]

Whew, we made it. Shouldn't be far now.

Thaaaat would've been really stupid.

[She pauses, waiting on Sekhmet to take the lead!]

[Leaving the platform!]

You're just such a good dancer, I got too distracted.

[Laughs, delighted! Yes, good, praise her, that's the best.]

Is that all it takes?

[Cats know what's important.]

You are really agile, though, you know? I was tripping all over my feet the other night.

[Picking up her pace a bit to fall into step with Sekhmet, leaning in.]

Oh come on, you weren't that bad. But if you want, you can practice and impress me later.

Hmm, I think I could get used to that. You know how shy I am, though, so I might want some liquid courage.

Pff. Maybe whoever messed with the punch will strike at the cafe.

I'm not sure it would go well with tea. Though there was a fermented item on the menu labelled "Kombucha?"

[Speaking of which, they arrive!]

It doesn't have to go well. I can change any liquid into whatever drink I want.

[She perks up a bit as they arrive, pausing to give it a once over before turning to Sekhmet and grabbing her by the arms.]

C'mon! Let's go check it out. I mean, have you even been here yet? You're, like, brand new.

I don't think I should start drinking so early in the day, anyway.

[She laughs lightly at Kohime's enthusiasm, and enters the cafe. It's very trendy and hip!]

I have been. I think it was on my second day that I went, because the food at the hotel was so bad. But the food here is rather good.

Up for debate –– it's hell, you can probably drink whenever you want.

[Looks around the little cafe, scraping her claws lightly on a table as she passes by and giving the unmanned counter an odd look.]

Uh, so where's the food?

That's also an app on your phone. Er, I can order if you prefer.

Yeah, sure. Just nothing too sweet.

[She ends up just leaning up against a counter, tipping her head to the side and studying Sekhmet curiously, like she's thinking something over.]

[Sekhmet is aware of Kohime's gaze, but chews her lip as she intently focuses on the menu instead. She orders a plate of small sandwiches, delicately cut, filled with things like cucumbers or avocado or smoked salmon, a couple croissants, along with an iced chai milk tea for Kohime, and a sakura flavored bubble tea for herself.

It magically appears on the counter!]

There.

[Turns to face it, crouching so she's almost eye-level with the plates and sniffing at the spread a little.]

You've still got that honesty thing going on, right? How long's that gonna last again?

[She smiles slightly at the catlike gesture.]

Probably a few days.

[She plucks a mini sandwich in her claws and pops it in her mouth -- unsurprisingly, one of the smoked salmon ones -- and then gathers the rest of the order to bring over to where Sekhmet is.]

It is rather good, isn't it? It's certainly worth the trip.

[She places it at a table and pushes it in the center, then sits, but stretches out and leans forward to rest her chin on her arms on the table, leaving the food for the moment.]

I don’t get why they can’t just set our kitchen up this way.

So which drink is mine?
